Explanatory Note
This Amendment No. 1 to Schedule 14A is being filed solely to amend and replace the proxy card included in the Definitive Proxy Statement filed by TechPrecision Corporation (the
"Company") with the Securities and Exchange Commission on
November 14, 2016 (the
"Proxy Statement"). After filing the Proxy Statement,
the Company discovered that an incorrect version of the proxy card was inadvertently filed with the Proxy Statement.
Please note that no changes have been made to the body of the Proxy Statement and that a correct version of the proxy card has been included in the Proxy Statement being mailed to those who hold shares of
the Company through a bank, brokerage firm or other nominee. While the incorrect version of the proxy card was mailed to registered holders of
the Company's shares, the correct version of proxy card was subsequently mailed to these registered holders along with the explanatory cover note that appears below.
TECHPRECISION CORPORATION
Dear Stockholder:
Find enclosed a revised proxy card relating to the Annual Meeting of Stockholders of TechPrecision Corporation. This revised proxy card is being sent to you to correct certain errors contained in the proxy card that was included with the proxy materials that were originally sent to you.
Please disregard the proxy card you previously received and cast your vote for the Annual Meeting of Stockholders on the enclosed proxy card.
If you have already cast your vote using the proxy card you previously received, voting again on the enclosed proxy card will revoke your prior vote, so please vote on all items of business on the enclosed proxy card even if you previously voted on these items.
If you have already cast your vote using the proxy card you previously received and do not submit a vote on the enclosed proxy card, the votes you cast on the previously received proxy card will be counted for all matters as you voted them, even if the information contained on the enclosed proxy card would have changed your vote on any such matter.
We thank you for your attention to this matter.
|
Sincerely,
|
|
|
|
Alexander Shen

Chief Executive Officer
